No I mean having the ability to input hex colour codes to compliment the RGB input within the FDT Editor Preferences panel. Similar to how Flash Builder allows this (see attached screenshot). I realise this is a limitation of Eclipse however if Adobe can add the feature into Flash Builder I'm sure you guys could add it into FDT.

When I first posted this feature request changing colour schemes was rather tedious however I've since discovered this site and it's plugin which ease the burden of creating/changing themes.

You can create custom themes with hex input here: http://www.eclipsecolorthemes.org/
And it's easy to change themes using their eclipse plugin (which supports FDT) here: http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/eclipse-color-theme
With this new setup I guess my feature request is no longer needed, although I'm sure it would be useful to have a native hex input available.
